If only he or his colleagues could shine a light on the real owners of the club hidden behind a Cayman Islands company.

Yeah but one of the issues we have had is allowing readers to make associations. It should just be cold, hard facts
Had that discussion with Simon on here when he said he just writes articles and it was down to the reader to make their minds up on what is going on. Rather than them being told what is going on.

Its a fine line though isn't it.....I'm sure (if I had the time & was getting paid for it) I could compile enough cold hard facts regarding sisus & otiums tenure & then present them in such a way as to leave very little doubt they are a bunch of useless cunts.....

And that is what should be the target...

Henry Winter can write about how ccfc has done since sisu took over. just 9 years ago. Relegation from championship to bottom of division three, forced move to Northampton resulting in the loss of about 60% home fans still struggling to get them back regularly, three transfer embargoes for late accounts, administration or is two, increased debts, failure to deliver a ground promised to the FL by the club chairman, gates tumbling from the high teens to less than 9000 all facts and read by the right people or should I say in the sisu case the wrong people could well impact on the sisu business.

Those owners don't want publicity, that's why they're hiding their more unsavoury activities behind SISU.
These people are likely American politicians and industrialists with a lot to lose if their names get out so if you want to pressure SISU into selling expose them.
All I wish to do is tell the world what sort of business they're doing, then they can be judged by the political & business communities which they inhabit.

A (factual) piece in the FT about how much investors money has been sunk into CCFC and what result the investors have had would have a much bigger impact than any petition.

And that will actually damage and hurt SISU directly, which is the point I have been trying to make
Whereas people damage and hurt CCFC thinking it bothers SISU.

Then go for the journalists who can do that - the likes of Peter Temple (if he isn't retired or dead!)

It's good in my opinion. And as everyone says it probably won't make a difference but it's something and it's good news.
If it only got 100 then that's bad.

It hasn't stopped growing so we could see a lot more than we currently have at the moment

Are they the same as Huntsman? As that name rings a bell.

It must have bumped it up for me because SISU are in my favourites

Ever since it took place, I've liked the idea of a good investigative journalist getting
His teeth into the administration process under Appleton. There were definitely
Things going on there that raised eyebrows too say the least, you'd usually think
They wouldn't dare pull a fast one in those circumstances, but they were desperate
To hang on to the club.
So just how desperate were they, what lengths were they prepared to go to, I would
Love to find out.

Would love that but I think the time for that has probably passed now unless it gets dragged up in some of the legals. I always felt that when you're working right up to what is legal its pretty easy to slip over the line.

Weirdly it says the petition has been viewed almost 50k times and it's only been signed 11k. Why wouldn't you sign it if you viewed? By almost 5-1 ratio. Strange

People who have signed it refreshing to see the number?

If they lost the club then 'well" I don't think they could comprehend that, I'm sure
They snapped the rules to ensure retaining ownership.
Probably banking on us being "2 Bob" and out of the spotlight.

I don't really think it would be the councils place though would it, wouldn't have
Thought they'd have been keen getting messed up in this.
I don't know Nick, Appleton not being able to find this and that, it just didn't sit
Right, as Dave says though water under the bridge now.
And if they are prone to shadey dealings, they will trip themselves up one day.

No, I mean they would have been very eager to grass sisu up if anything was illegal about it.
